[edit] Summary

B-52 bomber piloted by Bud Holland about to crash at Fairchild Air Force Base on June 24, 1994. Object near aircraft tail is the hatch cover due to the co-pilot's attempt to eject from the aircraft, which was interrupted by the aircraft's impact with the ground. All four crewmembers on the aircraft were killed by the aircraft's impact with the ground. Source of photo: http://w1.rob.com/pix/B52_crash/B52CRSH2

The photo was taken by a U.S. Air Force photographer to document the event since an official "fini-flight" ceremony for Colonel Wolff, one of the aircrewmembers, was to follow the flight.
